How to Make a Recipe that Green thai salmon and asparagus tray bake to Perfect the Dish

Ingredients for Green thai salmon and asparagus tray bake

1. 4 Salmon fillets
2. 100 g Thai green curry paste (approx 6 tablespoons), for the bake
3. 1 tbsp Thai green curry paste, for the salmon rub
4. 400 ml coconut milk
5. 250 g rice, washed and rinsed. (Any long grain will do. Avoid other types, as they will not absorb correctly. I usually use basmati.)
6. 150 ml boiled water
7. 5 mankrut lime leaves (or zest of one lime as a sub-optimal substitute)
8. 2 sticks lemon grass
9. 4 spring onions, chopped

12. Red chilli, spring onions & coriander to serve

Cooking Instructions for making Green thai salmon and asparagus tray bake

1

Here are the ingredients.

3

Take a tablespoon of the Thai green curry paste and rub it all over the salmon fillets, set them aside.

4

Put the lemon grass, lime leaves, spring onions, green paste, coconut milk, fish sauce, water & rinsed rice in the tray & mix well

5

Cover with tin foil and bake in the oven for 30 minutes. Tightly seal the foil as best you can. We don’t want to release too much moisture at this point.

6

Uncover, stir the rice (the edges may be more cooked than the middle bits so stir to swap them over). Nestle in the salmon fillets into the rice and add the asparagus, cover again.

Sometimes when this bake doesn’t go well (e.g., if water escapes during the first 30 mins), I have to add a bit of boiling water here.

7

Bake for 30 more minutes in the oven until all rice is cooked through

8

Garnish with spring onions, coriander & chilli & serve right away
